Whoah, that looks really cool! A few questions:

 - Is it possible to use require() inside those isolated things, for
example by using fs.readFile from the root isolate and blocking the
child until the callback fires?

 - Is there a simple API for making events in the root isolate that get
handled by the first free child isolate only?

 - Can I use Buffers in the child, and can I pass them between isolates?

 - How efficient would it be to use a proxy object inside of the isolate
to access things outside?

 - Is there an API for catching uncaughtExceptions in the isolates?

 - When an isolate in a pool fails really hard, will a new one be
created automatically?
